TM

4.4.2,

KitKat® OS to manage your contacts, email, social networks and to discover the

opportunities of Internet with just a single touch! Discover the full potential of your

new "smart" phone. Compared to the usual mono SIM Smartphones, NGM Dynamic

Life offers the convenience of Dual SIM that has always characterized the entire range

of NGM phones, i.e. the ability to handle two SIM cards and consequently two

telephone numbers at the same time. You will discover other useful features such as

setting the preferred SIM for calls, video calls, messages and data connection. By

NGM mobile phones, ask for after sales assistance, access the forum for technical

Warning: Data Connection of NGM Dynamic Life is active as soon as you first turn on

the phone (and also after every factory data reset). If you do not have a special or

"flat" rate for data connection with your SIM card, you are recommended to turn

off data traffic and set up a Wi-Fi connection, in order to avoid additional costs.

them automatically on your phone. If you want to use also a different Email account, you

Synchronization: synchronization is the most efficient approach to manage your useful

data because it allows you to make a backup of the data on your device with an internet

account. In case of replacement, loss or damage of the phone you will not experience loss

of data. The synchronization can be automatic (Settings > Data usage > Contextual menu >

Auto-sync data) or can be activated manually, individually for each installed application to

be synchronized; you can find the list of such applications in Settings > Account [installed

App list]. To add a new account, select Add Account. The synchronization uses an active

data connection, which could result in data traffic costs. It is advisable to use a WiFi

connection when available.
